guimap:

winrunner reads the logical name  in the test script and refers to the guimap

winrunner matches the logical name with the physical description

winrunner uses the physical description to find an object with the application

here 2 guimap files we are using

1.guimapfile for testmode: winrunner automatically creates guimap file for each test

2.global guimap file: a single guimap for the entire application

GUI Files are used to recognise the objects and windows in our application being tested. Winrunner stores the information regarding objects in GUI map files. Winrunner uses two methods to recognise those objects which are Global GUI map and GUI map file per test mode.

Winrunner uses GUI files to locate an object. While recording a test winrunner learns all objects and stores the logical name and physical properties in GUI map file. While executing a script, winrunner looks for a object with the same properties that it learnt about the object
